---- mucous membranes. Even the lightest touch could strip away the skin." Chandler didn't heed the warning. He only wanted to uncover the truth. He reached out to grip my shoulder and turned me over. When he spotted the dark red birthmark on my shoulder, resembling a butterfly, he looked as if he had been struck by lightning. Trembling, he quickly withdrew his hand. As he pulled away, a large chunk of bloodied flesh tore from my skin and stuck to his fingers. Chandler's legs gave way, and he sank to the floor. He stared blankly at the blood-covered flesh on his hand, murmuring, "It's really her, it's really her... "How could this happen?" He asked as he gazed at ---- Ben, his eyes bloodshot, panic and anger surging within him. With a wave of his arm, he sent everything nearby crashing to the ground. Then, he seized Ben's collar. "Bring me all the data on A167!" His voice trembled as he sank into despair. "Wasn't it said that the special drug was supposed to be effective?" His expression conveyed that my death was a monumental disaster. Iwas confused. Chandler, didn't you wish for my death? Why do you look like a lost soul now? Chandler did not sleep that night. My data was so sparse-there was nothing ---- remarkable to examine. After using the special drug, I hadn't undergone any further tests. Ihad merely been subjected to daily recordings of various checkup results. They drew many vials of blood from me, but compared to the pain caused by the cancer, it was a trivial experience. In the end, the side effects of the special drug manifested even more intensely within me. Before my death, I had resembled a living corpse, wishing I could never open my eyes again. By the end, I could barely keep my eyes open because they had begun to rot. Now, witnessing Chandler's unexpected reaction, I felt no joy, only pity. What was the point of such emotions when I was ---- already dead? He wandered in a daze until the hospital called him, jolting him awake. "Mr. Rotterdam, please come to the hospital to settle the fees. The surgery for patient Esther Corey was very successful. She is expected to wake up soon." Chandler stood up and rushed out.
